In addition, add a peer entry type for each peer entry. Currently,
this is only stored as an integer and visible in the context menu.
Eventually, different icons should be used based on this type.
This provides some initial functionality for showing peer information,
i.e., showing information about other devices that has been discovered.
Currently, information is only available in the AP mode (list of
associated stations), but this is expected to increase in the future
(e.g., show the current AP in station mode, other stations in IBSS,
etc.). Furthermore, there will be actions available for doing things
like providing a WPS PIN for a station.
wpa_supplicant can now reconfigure the AP by acting as an External
Registrar with the wps_reg command. Previously, this was only used
to fetch the current AP settings, but now the wps_reg command has
optional arguments which can be used to provide the new AP
configuration. When the new parameters are set, the WPS protocol run
is allowed to continue through M8 to reconfigure the AP instead of
stopping at M7.
If an EAPOL frame is received while wpa_supplicant thinks the driver is
not associated, queue the frame for processing at the moment when the
association event is received. This is a workaround to a race condition
in receiving data frames and management events from the kernel.
The pending EAPOL frame will not be processed unless an association
event is received within 100 msec for the same BSSID.
wpa_supplicant can now be built with FIPS capable OpenSSL for FIPS mode
operation. Currently, this is only enabling the FIPS mode in OpenSSL
without providing any higher level enforcement in wpa_supplicant.
Consequently, invalid configuration will fail during the authentication
run. Proper configuration (e.g., WPA2-Enterprise with EAP-TLS) allows
the connection to be completed.
An SMC router was reported to use 0x22 (WPAPSK + WPA2PSK) in the
authentication type of the provisioned credential and wpa_supplicant
rejected this as invalid. Work around this by replacing WPAPSK + WPA2PSK
with WPA2PSK.
This is a (hopefully) temporary workaround to allow the same source code
tree to be used for building hostapd and wpa_supplicant without having
to manually force recompilation of some files. Currently, some of the
driver wrapper files need to be built separately for hostapd and
wpa_supplicant (#ifdef's in the files based on AP functionality).
This is somewhat racy as far as parallel make execution is concerned,
i.e., it may be necessary to run "make -j#" twice (plain "make" works
fine. Since this is supposed to be a temporary workaround, there is not
much point in trying to fix this with any more complex make processing.
Instead of having all driver stuff collected across wpa_supplicant
and hostapd, create a common snippet that they both include and
that handles the build configuration.
Change existing CONFIG_LIBNL20 compatibility code in
driver_nl80211.c to be used by both wpa_supplicant
and hostapd, but take care of nl_handle too now.
Propagate CONFIG_LIBNL20 out of .config file and onto
CFLAGS in the Makefile.
Use libnl-gen now too.

Since we do not currently support changing the AP settings received
from M7, there is no point in actually sending out the M8 that would
likely trigger the AP to reconfigure itself and potentially reboot.
For now, we just receive the AP settings in M7 and add a local network
configuration block based on those, but NACK the message. This makes
wps_reg work like wps_pin, but by using the AP PIN instead of a client
PIN.
When the supplicant is connected and performs a scan, it doesn't enter
WPA_SCANNING state for various reasons. However, external programs
still need to know that the supplicant is scanning since they may not
wish to perform certain operations during a scan (as those operations
will likely fail or yield incorrect results). Add a 'scanning' property
and signal to the supplicant dbus interface to allow clients to
synchronize better with the supplicant when it scans.

hostapd_cli wps_pin command can now have an optional timeout
parameter that sets the PIN lifetime in seconds. This can be used
to reduce the likelihood of someone else using the PIN should an
active PIN be left in the Registrar.
I've exported the methods wpsPbc, wpsReg and wpsPin (patch attached),
so wpa_supplicant should be able to connect with WPS using the dbus
interface. I couldn't test it well because the problem seems to be in
my wireless card, a Broadcom BCM4328. At least it seems to do the same
using both interfaces. With ndiswrapper driver the "wpsie" entry
(thanks Dan!) didn't appear, and with the Broadcom wl driver it
appears but I cannot associate using WPS.
